With Supers commanding good money as of late, I think people have no issue spending the money on them.

I too have another Super in the works right now. With much nicer wood than this one. It was custom stocked by someone else previously with a piece that should have never been put on the gun. Cross grain in the wrist. After it breaking TWICE in less than 8 years, it was time to replace it again.
The owner did not care about fancy wood, but I am trying to match the forend that is on the gun which is still good.

Brian, it's probably the one you're currently doing that had been restocked in the past using nice looking but questionable wood. Your description sounds about right. 310xx. I'll send you a PM with the complete number and more details. frank

Yes, it is. I recognized the grip oddly enough. And I matched the figure in the wood to the photo.
